Claims15
A wire guiding apparatus that performs wire insertion by guiding a wire supplied from a wire feeding device through the insertion holes of at least a wire clamp and bonding tool, said apparatus comprising a detection device arranged in the wire guiding direction on said bonding tool that detects insertion of said wire into said bonding tool and a prescribed fed amount of said wire.
A wire guiding method for performing wire insertion by guiding a wire supplied from a wire feeding device through the insertion holes of at least a wire clamp and bonding tool said method comprising detecting insertion of said wire into said bonding tool when a predetermined amount of said wire is fed out of said bonding tool.
A wire bonder that performs bonding by a wire inserted into a bonding tool, equipped with a wire guiding apparatus that performs wire insertion by guiding a wire supplied from a wire feeding device through the insertion holes of at least a wire clamp and bonding tool said wire bonder comprising a detection device arranged in the wire guiding direction on said bonding tool that detects insertion of said wire into said bonding tool and a prescribed fed amount of said wire.
A wire guiding apparatus for guiding a wire supplied from a wire feeding device through insertion holes of at least a wire clamp and a bonding tool, said apparatus comprising:
- a plurality of guiding members that guide said wire;
- a frame supporting said plurality of guiding members;
- and
- a movement device that supports said frame and moves said plurality of guide members between a first position at which said wire is guided through the insertion holes and a second position that is remote from said first position.
A wire guiding apparatus for guiding a wire supplied from a wire feeding device through insertion holes of at least a wire clamp and a bonding tool, said apparatus comprising:
- a guiding member that guides said wire;
- and
- a movement device that supports said guide member and moves said guide member between a first position at which said wire is guided through the insertion holes and a second position that is remote from said first position.
A method for guiding a wire supplied from a wire feeding device through insertion holes of at least a wire clamp and a bonding tool, said method comprising:
- providing a plurality of guiding members that guide said wire;
- providing a frame that supports said plurality of guiding members;
- and
- moving said frame between a first position at which said wire is guided through the insertion holes and a second position that is remote from said first position.
A method for guiding a wire supplied from a wire feeding device through insertion holes of at least a wire clamp and a bonding tool, said method comprising:
- providing a guiding member that guides said wire;
- and
- providing a movement device that supports said guide member;
- activating said movement device to move said guide member between a first position at which said wire is guided through the insertion holes and a second position that is remote from said first position.
